I found the MDR-7506s (V6) to be very unmusical and almost unlistenable because of the harsh highs and sibilance. The DT250-80s would be a great choice IMO; relatively neutral sound and incredibly tough construction. Although I tried pairing my 250-80s with a Meta-42 amp and didn't notice a huge...

A lot of the older/classic stuff is good: Tribe Called Quest, De La, older Roots stuff, etc. I'd stay away from the new Black Eyed Peas and Roots albums; they're trying to crossover to mainstream and their new stuff is wack. If you want some intelligent new hip-hop to check out: Cannibal Ox -...

I completely disagree with aiOtron, Gamecube for the most part is for little kids. But either way you don't play the system, you play the games so have a look at the games offered by each system, then make your decision. When Live came out I saw an interview with a Nintendo exec and he said...

Xbox rocks, I've had mine for a year and a bit. I got laid-off, myself, back in April but they gave me lots of notice so I went out and bought a $3000 flat screen high-def jobbie in preparation. I'm livin' the dream. heheh As a previous poster said: it's worth it just for Halo, but Xbox is no...

I watched a bit of it on CBC; it looked like hella fun! Flipping through the channels I noticed that CNN Headline News had a guy there who was covering it so I'm sure many Americans were aware of it. I must agree that Justin Timberpuke had no business being there... but whatever, everyone had a...

Sorry, I can't answer most of your questions, but I can definitely say that if you have a choice go to British Columbia (there are probably more job opportunities in the east though: Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal). I've lived all over Canada (except the Maritimes) and BC is by far the nicest place...

Chuck Taylors are for kids. The last good shoe Converse made was the Weapon.

Personally, I found my 7506s very unmusical and even unlistenable at times because of the harsh highs and sibilance. I much prefer Koss Portapros or KSC-35s although they don't provide any isolation.
